Just Took Delivery Of The 997.2 C4s:) And Here's My Story...

About 1 year ago I purchased an 08' Targa 4S and brought it back before the plates came in (lacked power in my opinion). Purchased the 08 Turbo and sold back to the dealer with 2k miles on it (construction at home tore my garage apart and refused to leave outside). Turbo had silly power! So a few days ago my 2009 C4S (with manual transmission) came in. Power is noticably diferent from the '08 and 1st gear feels longer. Sound is more refined (no sport exhaust available). Although draw dropping power is not there I will be happy with this car until my 2009 Turbo comes in before the end of the year. Porsche lover or cumpolsive idiot I am not really sure but my ovdrall opinion is these cars are great and Porsche keeps making them better and better. Anyone looking for a great deal on a 2009 c4s should keep in touch with me around mid December!

All the best!

I think you tossed more money away on depreciation in that one year than I earned at my job! Enjoy the ride!

+1 but hey if you got it why not!

A local guy here in Tampa bought back in the summer of 2007 a 2007 Carrera S and ordered a 2008 Turbo the same day. He bought the Carrera S off the floor just to have until his 08 Turbo came in.

Details on the 997?

I'm in the market and would be willing to wait a little. Can you share with us the details on the C4S (color, options, etc).

Thanks.

My car , my build, my insanity

So here it is. 2009 C4s with 85 miles on it. List was just under 112k. If all goes well I will be getting 09 Turbo in about 8 weeks or so. My guess is I will have about 700 miles on it. Anyone interested should let me know. I think it will be a great deal for someone wanting to get a 2009 at a better price. (sorry no fire sales here).
FULL LEATHER
ADAPTIVE SEATS
THICKER WHEEL
BLUETOOTH
IPOD
NAVI
TURBO WHEEL
LEATHER SILS
ILLUMINATED MODEL
PORSCHE CRESTS
LEATHER CENTER CONSOL WITH INSGNIA
BLACK GAUGES
PORSCHE CRESTS IN HEADREASTS
HEATED SEATS AND PROB SOME OTHER THINGS
